HC Deb 27 April 1994 vol 242 cc215-6W
21. Mr. Darling

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland when he expects to announce the result of his consultation on the document, "Setting Forth"; and if he will make a statement.

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

We issued our response to the consultation on "Setting Forth" on 1 February 1993, following which a range of feasibility studies on aspects of the proposed road bridge across the Forth and associated road and rail links were put in hand. These studies are nearing completion and the results will be published as soon as possible.
